CHARLES DARWIN.

He Was a Naughty Child and Bad Boy,
but Never Artist.
LONDON, Nov. 5.-The Pail Mall Gazette pub
fishes lengthy extracts from a new book entitl ed
"Darwin's Life" which will soon be issued.
From these extracts it appears that Darwin as
child was naughty and boy lazy. He left
Shrewsbury School after seven years very little
wiser than when he went there. He frankly
avowed that he did not work because
he knew his father would leave him
enough to live on. He was placed in
charge OF Doctor Brother. but his
horror OF the sight of blood and repugnance to
dissection prevented his becoming doctor.
After two years his father concluded he would
not make doctor, and designed him for the
church. He was sent to Cambridge, where he
led dissipated life, gambling and neglecting his
studies. The idea of his entering the
ministry ultimately abandoned. Darwin
was passionate!y fond of music, and frequented
concerts in the college chapel, and paid choir
boys to sing in his rooms; yet his ear was
strangely defective He incapable of per-
ceiving dissonance. and could not hum tune
correctly. In 1899 he became Dest and

CHURCH DISESTABLISHM

A Notable Conversion-yvhy 1t Would Be Ad-
visabIe to Make Terms with Gladstone
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
LONDON. Nov. 5.-Among the recent CONVEX
sations to the creed of disestablishment. none is
moro remarkable than that of Sir William Har-
court, who. himself the son of rector and tho
grandson of an bishop, used to pride him
self upon being the soundest erastian in the
Church OF England, the late Archbishop Gail
being good second. The adherence of Mr..
Gladstone to the policy of disestabishment with
regard to the Welsh church. and the sympathy
he expressed with total disestablishment in
Scotland, will undoubtedly be attended by far
reaching and long-enduring consequences. It
has already gained many converts to the cause.
If only the clergy of the threatened establish
ments could be wise in time, they could make
terms with Mr.. Gladstone, gain his
assistance. and commit. their material
interests to his keeping, rather than
face later but sterner reckoning
with reformers of very different mold Re-
ligiou is, after all, the greatest force in human
life, and Mr. Gladstones authority rests in no
slight degree upon the religious habit of his
mind. Throughout his public life the interests
of religion have been among the main factors OF
his policy. When he il In authority religion
cliffs her mitred front in courts and parla-
ments." and even his opponents realize that.
however little they may like his dealings with
the forms and trappngs and legal accidents of
religious establishments, ''the inward part, or
the thing signified." is safe in his hands. This
general recognition of Mr.. Gladstone as
a genuine religious gives him
special fitness for the work OF disestab-
lishment. and peculiar authority in
dealing with it. The Inhabitants of England
are on the whole, a religious people, and they
would not endure disestabshment dictated by
hostility to religion conducted with fippancy
or ignorance; but they would recognize in Mr..
Gladstone's reverence for the past and his con-
stitutional and theological learning exactly the
combination of gifts necessary for the adequate
discharge of SO great and delicate work.
During the last years of the Irish es-
tablishment, that institution had
more valiant skillful champion than
a certain deacon Hopford. This acute and
learned churchman fought Mr.. Gladstene's de-
signs by pen and tongue, by private influence
and public agitation But the moment that the
general election of 1868 ended the arch
deacon saw that the time was up and, instead
of proloneine a useless resistance to the inevita-
bic, he made overtures to the victorious poll
tician. and devoted the whole of his energies to
securing the best possible terms for the church
